Wonder MIDI

Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             Wonder MIDI
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    JVC
RELEASED:         1993
TYPE:             Edutainment
LANGUAGE:         Japanese

PREMISE:          This was an exclusive release offered for the WonderMega,
                  the original Japanese release of the JVC X'Eye.  It
                  allowed the use of MIDI instruments with the unit (whose
                  internal music hardware was superior to Sega's own).  It
                  also supported JVC's Piano Player keyboard, although it
                  could be used with any MIDI-capable keyboard.

IMPRESSIONS:      Reports indicate that it compares well with the Miracle
                  Keyboard system, although it was geared primarily towards
                  the schooled musician.  It did include teaching software,
                  though, as well as music composition tools.  Wonder MIDI
                  and its accessories were jettisoned during the WonderMega
                  redesign due to poor sales, and did not survive the
                  Atlantic crossing when the WonderMega became the X'Eye.
